Thus, instead of using the name '7D Mark II' for the 7D successor, Canon might use a new naming scheme.Certainly a possibility.I would be taking the 7DII rumors with a grain of salt, though.The 7D is a year older than the 60D and is seemingly the next candidate for an update.The thing is, the 60D has been continuously lagging behind Nikon's D7000 in sales, even though it is been selling for less.
